Mahmoud Samir Fayed (born December 29, 1986) is a computer programmer, known as the creator of the PWCT programming language. PWCT is a free open source visual programming language for software development. He also created or designed Ring. He is a researcher at King Saud University. Prior to that, he worked at the Riyadh Techno Valley in the Information and Communication Technology Incubator.[1][2][3][4][5][6][7]

Background

Fayed started to learn computer programming at 10 years old under the supervision of his father who works as a computer programmer. He started using the Clipper programming language under MS-DOS. In 2006 he wrote free Arabic programming books. He studied computer science at the Faculty of Electronic Engineering, Menoufia University, Egypt, graduating in 2008.[8][9][10][11]

Fayed received a Master's degree in 2017, from the College of Computer and Information Sciences, King Saud University, Saudi Arabia.[12]

Career

PWCT language

In 2005 Fayed began work on a new visual programming language called PWCT and distributed it as a free-open source project in 2008.[13][14][15]

Supernova language

In 2009 Fayed began work on a new programming language called Supernova and distributed it as a free-open source project in 2010. The language support writing the source code in Arabic/English keywords at the same time and it's a Domain-specific language for GUI development using natural code. Supernova is developed using PWCT.[16][17][18]

JVLC Journal

In 2013 Fayed worked with other researchers as a reviewer for the Journal of Visual Languages and Computing.[19] The journal is published by Elsevier.[20]

LASCNN algorithm

In 2013–2014 Fayed worked with other researchers on designing the LASCNN algorithm. In graph theory, LASCNN is a Localized Algorithm for Segregation of Critical/Non-critical Nodes. The LASCNN algorithm establishes k-hop neighbor list and a duplicate free pair wise connection list based on k-hop information. If the neighbors are stay connected then the node is non critical.[21][22]

Ring language

In 2013 Fayed began work on a new programming language called Ring and distributed it as a free-open source project in 2016. Ring aims to offer a language focused on helping the developer with building natural interfaces and declarative DSLs.[23][24][25]
